Well it happend.... Went to the drag strip on friday and did a few passes. Due to the heat, not use to the clutch and hitting rev limit in 4th about 20meters before the finish line i could only run a 12.4@111. My last run my cel came on and the car sounded odd so i checked it over but it looked normal. Decided to head home but halfway home the engine died and would fire up. So im thinking "great i just blew the motor what else can go wrong." so i call a tow truck and ask for a flat bed since its awd and all the wheels have to be off the ground. They tell me they dont have flat beds but will use the dolly for the rear wheels. Well the driver shows up and hooks the front end up. I ask him to do the rear but he santed to get of the highway first. I assumed he was going to take the next exit which was about 100meters ahead and get the rear off the ground but he didnt. 20km down the road my buddy waved us over and it looked like someone stuck 2 smoke grenades in my engine bay. It was all coming from the front diff and tcase. So i told the driver to call his manager because they are paying for it. So we are waitin to hear back from the dealership. So far the only info i know is the 3 codes. PO300, PO400 and PO406 so a misfire and egr failure. So most likely a damaged plug, valve and piston.
